What are you doing to help yourself in this market?

By
Real Estate Agent with Dave Edwards Realty

If you have not read the book by Gary Keller called "Shift" I would reccommend that you take the time to read it. It is good, practical advice on to deal with the market that we are currently embracing. If you have a small continuing education budget then this would be a cheap way to get a whole lot. If you have lots of money it is still good because there are probably so many different things that you missing and don't even know it.

We all work at different companies, but if you don't have the top leaders in your company that are actively involved with you as an agent then I would suggest its time to make a move. Why do you think Keller Williams is the fastest growing real estate company, even in this market? If want answers let me know.

After four years at Keller Williams and 2 years on the Keller Williams Agent Leadership Council (meaning one of the top 20 producers in the office), I made a move.  I had to. 

I moved to RE/MAX because of the amount of exposure, market share and advertising that RE/MAX gets for it's agents. 

I'll admit,  I LOVED my time at Keller Williams and I loved teaching and giving back to my office, but at the end of the day, as the market shifted, I had to shift and get more serious as well. 

Love the books though!

We love it at REMAX and we are interested in reading the book Shift. In our area at least we find that many of the newer agents are at Keller.
